There are two dif- ferent types of light, natural and artificial . The, natural light is created by the sun and will give you light indoors, through windows and doors, or through skylights. Ail plants will need some type of light, some can. stand the low light created in corners, while others will 'do better right in the window sill so that they get the full light. Flowering plants without exception will do better in a well lighted area, to make the blooms corne out to, their natural state. It is important that direct sunlight coming through a window will be magnified several times and can burn the leaves and ,flowers ýof--the plants, so a slight protection with curtains or sheers will overcome this high intensity, this is particu- larly true of the south and west windows where the sun will be the strongest in the afternoons, in places like that you must protect your plants, or grow plants like the cacti which can stand this type of light. Many of you who are African violet fans, will no doubt have experienced that the north and east window will give you the best resuits. Artifical light is used success- fully in the home and does not have to be a fancy setup, even a lamp close to a plant will help to give it some of the light that it requires. Fluorescent light is the best kind of artificial light for your plants, for it will give off so much heat that the leaves of the plants can be burned, also the incandescent light will use more electricity than the fluorescent light bulb. The ordinary cool white fluorescent light bulb will give you enough light for, some Growing plants to grow properly, but it is a good investment to use the plant light bulbs with their wide spectrum of the different light rays for a complete light system. There are several different makes on the market and these include the Grolux by Sylvania, the Plantgro by Westinghouse and the new Duro-lite which has the widest spectrum of them ail, it is claimed that this light is even better than the natural day- light, since the'Sun rays are often pollutants, and this type of bulb is used in increasing number in the maternity wards for proper lighting of the new babies, they have also introduced an incandescent light to fit the regular fixtures with the same type of wide spectrum light rays, which wouls be suitable for hanging lamps and for use in special lighting spots where the fixtures for the, fluorescent bulbs would be too large. There are ahl types of fixtures on the market that will fit any lighting problems. If you have the room then instaîl the largest fixture for the fluorescent bulb, since the cost is about the same, but this will give you more area for growing plants at about the same cost. Some light fietures have receptacles for ' using both types, but keep in mind that the incandescent light will give off a lot of heat, so a 40 watt bulb should be the largest you will use. Try to instaîl the fixture in such a way that it can be lowered or raised so that they accomno- date the different height of plants. Ail plants will require a dormant period during a day, so make sure that the lights will be off at least 5 to 6 hours daily. Light meters are also available from your local florist and they will make it easier to give the required light. Until next week, happy indoor gardening. PEACOCK LUMB ER LTD. Building supplies.
